When Sang Yu interviewed him before, he deeply explored Qi Huai's life experience, although he was deliberately concealed by the Qi family, as long as he wanted to investigate, he could still investigate some clues.

Qi Huaiyan's position in the Qi family is embarrassing, he was born by Qi Wei's cheating with a woman outside.

No matter what era it is, the reputation of the junior and the illegitimate child is not good.

How many white eyes Qi Huaiyan has suffered since he was a child, Sang Yu doesn't need to think about it to know.

"When my mother gave birth to me, I didn't know that man had a family," Qi Huai paused, his throat moved lightly, this was the first time he took the initiative to talk to someone about his life experience, and the melancholy in his eyes was like a ball of black ink, so thick that it could drip out.

That man was referring to the former president of Sheng Hai, and the man in front of him was reluctant to even shout the title of "Dad", which showed how deep his resentment was towards him in his heart.

"He and my mother have been hiding their identity for many years since they realized that they were pregnant and had children, and they didn't even reveal his real name like us, until the third year after I was born, the news that he had a son outside spread far and wide, and was discovered by the one in his family, my mother knew that the two have always been in love, but it is a matchmaker, and my existence is no longer the crystallization of the love between the two, but has become ironclad evidence of the two cheating."

"From that day on, everyone around us pointed fingers at the two of us, bloody toys were often received at the door, dissected animal carcasses were often received, the walls on the door were vicious curses that could never be wiped clean, and even at night there would be uninvited guests in the house, making shameless demands with disgusting eyes...... My mom couldn't stand the irritation and daily harassment, so she took me to move, and the house we live in now was a dilapidated project that the developer rented out at a low price to the surrounding migrant workers who were living in embarrassment. ”

Sang Yu's eyes were stunned: "That...... What about him? ”

Qi Huai sneered: "He? I don't know if it was because he was stumped by the wife of the family, or if the pressure of public opinion made him a shrinking turtle, anyway, I haven't seen anyone since. ”

Just listening to Qi Huaiyan's description, Sang Yu was so angry that the roots of his teeth itched, and he was a cowardly and affectionate man, the initiator did not get the slightest punishment, but he was perfectly invisible after the matter was revealed.

All the pain is poured on the woman and the child, and what Qi Wei does is simply unworthy of being a human being.

It is difficult for Sang Yu to imagine how hard it is for an unmarried woman to raise a child alone, or in that era when a woman's reputation is extremely important.

She remembered that during the investigation of Qi Huaixi, there was very little information about his biological mother, she seemed to be a person who had been deliberately forgotten, and Sang Yu only knew that she had drowned.

That year, Qi Huaiyan was only eight years old.

Qi Huai raised his eyebrows, looked at Sang Yu for a moment, looked at her wet eyes, and understood her thoughts for a moment.

He lowered his eyes, and a painful look spread from the bottom of his eyes: "People outside say that my mother drowned, huh...... How is it possible, she grew up by the sea since she was a child, and she is very familiar with water, she ...... She lost her attachment to the world and walked to the sea by herself, where the sea water is connected to her hometown, and she wants to go home. ”

There was an atmosphere of sadness in the air.

Sang Yu hugged the man's shoulder, felt the moisture falling on his neck, and said softly: "I believe that Auntie must have found her way home, when I was a child, I always heard the old people say that the end of the sea is the whale that gives birth to all things, and the end of the sea is also the other side of the dream, the belief of freedom, so the world is unwilling to turn back." ”

"I don't blame her, she has the life she wants to live, and no matter what decision she makes, I respect her choice." Qi Huai sat up straight, raised his eyes and stared at Sang Yu, "It is my lifelong dream to have a happy family and my parents are alive, I know you think the same way, Ah Yu, don't get along with yourself, Uncle Yan and Auntie have been looking for you for many years, their love for you is beyond everything, don't be afraid, I will go with you, no matter what the road ahead, I will always stand by your side." ”

The first formal dinner with the Yan family was on the weekend a week later, and this day was the Yan family's family day.

For Sangyu, this is the most special day of his life.

For Qi Huaiyan, this is also the first time he officially met Sang Yu's family as a boyfriend.

"Wouldn't this be too formal?"

After Qi Huai changed out of the fifth suit, Sang Yu finally didn't calm down and walked into the wardrobe in the cloakroom.

A long row of black, white and gray suits, neatly hung in the wardrobe, are more college students than college students receiving military training.

She looked at the man who had been restless since the morning, and couldn't help but smile: "What about the one who said that you would accompany me and cheer me up?" Why did you mess up first? ”

Qi Huai looked down at the cufflinks on the hem of his clothes, a little uncertain.

"People rely on clothing, and a decent piece of clothing can invisibly enhance people's self-confidence!"

After speaking, he went to the wardrobe to rummage through his clothes: "Mother Liu, where is my custom suit with a threaded pattern?" ”

Mother Liu poked her head out: "Young master, that one was sent for dry cleaning, do you want to take a look at something else?" ”

Mulberry ......

She pushed the man away, randomly selected a pleasing one from the wardrobe, and handed it to Qi Huaiyan: "Wear this!" ”

Qi Huaiyan stretched out his hand and grabbed Sang Yu: "You like this, I wore this one at the engagement banquet when I thanked you." ”

Sang Yu pursed her mouth, she said how could she look so familiar, throw it aside, and choose again.

"You're so grand, it makes me feel like I'm very perfunctory."

Qi Huaiyan put on a gray coat with white and blue stripes again, and breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's different, you are the daughter of the Yan family, they like what you wear, I'm going to meet my future father-in-law and mother-in-law, it's very stressful!" ”

"The billions of projects on the battlefield of the unbridled business don't blink, why are you panicking in this little scene?" Because of Qi Huai's restraint, Sang Yu's originally nervous heart gradually calmed down, and he even had the heart to look at his jokes, "Don't worry, I like you, they will definitely like you too, don't be nervous." ”

As soon as the words fell, the palm of the bow tie was restrained.

"What did you say?"

Sang Yu repeated: "Take it easy, it's just a meal, and I won't eat you." ”

Qi Huai shook his head: "It's not like this." ”

Sang Yu lowered his head, as if he didn't hear it, turned around and wanted to run out, but was hugged by Qi Huai's waist and didn't let go: "Say it again, I didn't hear it clearly just now." ”

"I didn't listen to the reckoning, it's not my reason."

Qi Huai had no choice but to lower his head, bury his head in his hair, and respond word by word: "I like you too, I like you very much, I like it for many years." ”

From this moment on, Sang Yu knew that there was nothing wrong with the feeling all along, Qi Huaiyan really knew her a long time ago, and secretly had an innocent crush.

The moment he stood in the living room of the Yan family, Sang Yu realized that Qi Huai's nervousness was necessary.

Yan Rulei and his words were like interrogating prisoners throughout the whole process, conducting a thorough investigation of Qi Huai's work, feelings, character and knowledge.

Someone was lifted to the point that he didn't even have his underwear, who would have thought that the king of the business world, who was calling for wind and rain in the past, and everyone was trembling with fear when they saw it, would be as well-behaved as a lamb in the future father-in-law's house.

A group of people poured tea for Yan Rulei and played chess with him, even if the other party was a stinky chess basket who temporarily regretted chess, he could praise "Uncle is superb in chess." "And then lose a move and a half without leaving a trace.

After a while, he went to the racecourse with Yan Ci, and was threatened and intimidated many times by the ear, and the topic all revolved around how to treat Sang Yu in the future, and what would the Yan family do to him.

Qi Huai responded one by one, not daring to refute.

So, at dinner, Sang Yu saw Qi Huaixi, who was in a shimmering spirit, and didn't even let go of the nanny and aunt of the Yan family, and praised two sentences of good craftsmanship.

The nanny was praised and said good things for him.

Mrs. Yan was by Sang Yu's side throughout the whole process, watching her daughter overjoyed, and she couldn't tell Qi Huai any other thoughts.

At the end of the meal, Mrs. Yan enthusiastically wanted Sang Yu to stay, but she refused.

Looking at the back of his daughter's departure, Yan Rulei put his arm around his wife's shoulders and comforted: "The coming days are long, today is a good start, the child is trying to accept us little by little, don't push her too hard, take your time." ”

The words echoed: "Don't worry, Mom, Qi Huai has been rebelled by me." ”

Mrs. Yan: ?

"I told him that if we want our family to agree to his marriage to Ah Yu, we must first let Ah Yu accept us sincerely, otherwise we won't talk about it!"

——

In the car, Qi Huai's slender fingertips tapped on the steering wheel, glanced at Sang Yu beside him, and coughed lightly: "Uncle Yan and Aunt Yan, people are very kind." ”

Sang Yu nodded, it is indeed very good, it is her honor to have such parents.

Qi Huai made persistent efforts: "These days, I have been thinking about a problem. ”

"What's the problem?"

"Our wedding is scheduled for the vernal equinox, okay?"

In the days after the cold winter, there will be a breeze when the earth warms up, and there will be the fragrance of grass.

His love for mulberry elm sprouted in this season and blossomed and bore fruit in this season.

Qi Huai wanted to make this day the most beautiful time of the year.
